[G] [C] [Bb] [D]
[Gm] [Bb] [Dm]
[Gm] [Eb] Oh, the wedding window opened, to [Cm] move the dancing candle flame,
[Fm] and the first moth of summer, [Ab] [Bb] suicidal came, [Gm] suicidal [Cm] came,
[Eb] and the new breeze jetted, [Cm] in its may-bun tenderness,
sending warmth to [Bb] the disabling,
[Ab] as she [Bb] turned to [Cm] current [Eb] dress, and the long night awakened,
[Cm] and we saw the powdered wings,
circling [Fm]
our tomorrows,
in [Ab] the wearing [Bb] of the spring, [Eb] chasing shadows to living,
[Cm] in the magic lantern's light,
[Fm] the creatures [Bb] of the candle,
[Ab] oh, [Gm] the night is [C] dying, [Eb] while the moon is dimly weeping,
through [Cm] the golden eagle's eye,
[Gm] in [Fm] our haystack mattress,
[Eb] butterflies dropping on the [Bb] springtime night,
[Ab] on the [C] springtime night,
[F] [D]
[Gm] [Dm]
[C] [Gm] [F] lights to [Dm]
love, as the landing [C] set,
[G] as the candle [B] went, [Em] and the month well went,
[Bb] and the ball [C] burned together, [F] with [Dm] the wick well spired,
the meeple [D] came to end [Eb] it there,
[Cm]
[Bb] [Fm]
for [Ab] [Bb]
[C] [Gb] the leavened window underneath,
to [Ebm] move the dancing candle flame,
and [Bbm] the [Abm] first moth of summer,
[B] suicidal [Db] came, oh, suicidal [Ebm] [Gb] came,
to join in the worship,
[Ebm] of the light that never dies,
and the [Abm] moments of blessing,
of [Ebm] two moths spinning [Db] in the right,
[Dm] [Gm]
[Dm] [Gm]
[Dm]
